Sounds like marketing to me, ''bob marley's best'', I'm sure there's a story about how someone got a clone of some weed plant Bob Marley had growing in his yard, etc,etc

lol.
Never heard of either, check if they are even strains sold by companies or if someone just called their plant that after making a hybrid.

It's truely a strain Shlewm. Don't let these guys get you down. But be careful growing her as she goes hermie easy. Here is some info on it.
Origin: Holland Type: F1 hybrid Composition: 50% indica, 50% sativa Flowering-Time: 8-10 weeks The most happy seeds in the world!The seeds have been selected thoroughly. The absolute top! These seeds are recommended for inside and outside cultivation. Because of their early flowering property these seeds are well suited for outside cultivation

Hey, I was just saying that it didn't seem to me like it was a true strain. Nice stuff.

If anyone wanted some named after bob, I would actually suggest Marley's collie by sensi seeds. But then again, I am starting to hear bad things about sensi seeds which SUCKS because they used to be some of the best top notch breeders. I heard the name has been sold to non breeders now tho :/ So don't take my recommendation on that unless you know someone who has the beans.

^^ sensi seeds are not sold to non breeders. sensi seeds is a seedbank that still can be trusted to provide top notch genetics.
and to the original poster, if this is a F1 hybrid that are beeing sold you can expect alot of things, F1 hybrids does often vary alot in quality but some of the best traits i have seen in cannabis has been in the F1 geneartion and have disappeared completly in F2 and later generations.

I have heard pretty bad things about sensi seeds germination rates lately. From QUITE a LOT of people. Some even from this site, but I will not mention them. Hopefully they will chime in :/

Sensi is ending. They have stopped all breeding and are planning to move into just doing hemp. i've been a Sensi coustmer since before they merged with the Sativa seed bank (1990). I'm fully stocking up on Sensi strains to breed them out but i have a good source and I'm getting a lot of seeds of each strain because to put it plainly I expect low germ rates. Some strains as low as 6 seeds per 15.
To get a idea of just how into hemp they are if you take all of Sensi's hemp plants(non thc strains) they have growing (mostly in Holland and Germany) it's over 8 sq miles. The cannabis castle will stay open and will keep breeding and selling seeds but the main breeding facilities have already been shut down.

well ok i stand corrected allthough they still sell medicinal cannabis seeds of their site. moving from medicinal marijuana to hemp is probably a smart thing to do buisness wise but that is someting completly diffrent than selling the name to non breeders. and about germ rates, i orderet my last big buds from sensi seed bank and i had 100% germination ratio. i dont see the connection from moving to hemp and lower germination ratio on the seeds they still have in stock if they have stopped all breeding projects.

Because they are old seeds. Not as fresh, because they have stopped breading them. They are selling off the rest of their stock
